Opana is a brand name drug , it would be called oxymorphone, generically,the other is Diluadid and it come generic as, Hydromorphone, If you get oxymorphone, the generic name of Opana, the insurance company would pay for it, but it is not available generically I believe.

To the original poster, the difference is just the manufacturer, since this is a generic medication. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, headache, drowsiness, constipation, dry mouth, and dizziness.

What Carl has posted is correct, but both of these medications are now available as generics.

Zofran is not a controlled substance, it is used to treat, or prevent nausea, and vomiting, though it may cause side effects, such as dizziness, drowsiness, headache, and dry mouth. Are you sure she understood the medication you were asking about? I wonder if she misheard you.
